Department for Work and Pensions written question – answered at on 20 May 2024.

Labour, Bermondsey and Old Southwark
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, whether his Department holds data on the number of job offers for disabled people withdrawn due to the time taken to arrange Access to Work packages.
Mims Davies
The Minister of State, Department for Work and Pensions
The information requested about the number of job offers for disabled people withdrawn due to the time taken to arrange Access to Work packages is not available and to provide it would incur disproportionate cost. However, applications which have a start date of 4 week or less are prioritised to ensure customers are able to enter and remain in the labour market.
The Access to Work statistics includes how many applications result in provision being approved from 2007/08 to 2021/23.
The latest Access to Work statistics can be found on Access to Work statistics on GOV.UK (www.gov.uk).
